Description BT 2016-10-19 12:29:12 UTC 
bluealsa is run as root:root but checkpath in /etc/init.d/bluealsa sets the access mode to 0700.

checkpath -q -D -m 0700 -o :audio /var/run/bluealsa

This prevents members of the audio group from creating a socket in the /var/run/bluealsa directory when connecting to A2DP devices. The access mode check should be 0750 or 0770. In my case it worked with 0750.
